First, thanks to everyone! i have red every post, here on on p-mail.

Why do i care, because i do! this is not Ben the mechanic but simple the
westy guy! I call that the Westy spirit. You all know that i perfectly know
the cooling system, i have made that section of the van one of my specialty.
so i'm here sitting in the cold and i can do nothing!
She is a GREAT lady, at 62yo, i can only say BRAVO! On the phone, i could
fell her fear for the worse... as she is stuck in a very small village far
enough from any big town. She is not alone, she is travelling with a friend,
a big guy! And yes, you guys don't know me, i'm crasy enough to take the
plane and go there.... I may sound a bit rough here (on the list) sometime
but i have a very big heart, to big.

I now agree on a few things, the pump went bad, i yes, that happen, she is
gonna check today if it's leaking from the hole (all bad-new pump i have
seen were leaking), BUT, a pump going bad quick can also happen when the
Alternator is "shaking" (unbalance, broken bracket...), but, she is running
on a modified braket that i made for her!

the rad is bad (my choice for now)

Loose head due to stud failure.

I made her a list of "how to" check everything, they are working on it as i
write.

I will keep you up to date... i have to think of a way of fixing that rad!

Ben
